Shocking!

I think I have found the most elusive of creatures. And, here, of all places. Could it be? It sounds crazy, I know, but I think I've found: an honest mechanic. Gasp! Yes, it's true. When I first moved here I had someone look at my car because the AC didn't seem to be working. They wanted to charge $160 to "fix" it!!! I said no. So, the guy today told me the AC is fine and that nobody's AC works when it's 117 degrees.

I left there having paid $19.20. That's never happened to me before now.

I've also found this cool little coffee place near me that isn't a Starbuck's.

(I'm trying to focus on these positives, because if I think too much about my futile job hunt and increasingly dire financial situation, I will start to hyperventilate.)

Please tell me of the cool non-Starbucks coffee shop. Where is it and what's it called.

It's at Flamingo and Pecos. It's got a terrible name (ReJAVAnate, or something like it), but good snacks, friendly people and nice atmosphere. Also they have music at night, although I haven't checked that out yet.
